Bose is known for its noise cancelling technology, which helps block out the rumble of airplane engines as well as other sounds. Bose also offers a variety of premium wireless headphones.

The new Bose Sport Earbuds Truly Wireless are slimmer and more sleek than the QuietComfort buds, and have a better microphone for calls. They are also sweat-proof and come with a bag for charging.

Active Noise Cancellation

Bose QuietComfort headphones are known for their outstanding noise cancellation. However, the company also makes an array of premium headphones that don't require or have this feature. They are usually high priced and made from top-quality materials. They're also light and sweat-resistant, and comfortable enough to be worn for long periods.

The flagship 700s are a great example of this. They come with an upgraded eight-microphone system (six for cancelling the sound, and two to pick up voices) and 11 custom ANC modes that allow you to hear the world around you or block it out completely. They also have a "Conversation Mode" button that lets you temporarily pause your music to place an emergency call or make a brief announcement.

Another great feature is the Bose TruSleeve, a removable cover that wraps around the neck and rests on the upper ear for additional sound reduction when you're out and about. It's available for all QuietComfort models and can be adapted via the app to fit your ear and lifestyle.

Comparing to our top pick, the Sony WH-1000XM5, 700s offer a better quality microphones for phone calls. This makes them an excellent choice for those who take calls frequently and need to be heard clearly while traveling.

You can connect the headphones to your mobile device via Bluetooth 4.2 and Bose's exclusive A2DP protocol. They are compatible with aptX Adaptive, aptX HD and are perfect for audiophiles who have sources that support the highest-quality wireless codes. Bose comes with a 2.5mm to 3.5mm cable for wired listening. They're optimized for Google Assistant and Alexa. The headphones have a battery lasts up to 20 hours and a USB-C charging port on the right earcup.

Sound Quality

Bose is renowned for its noise cancellation technology, which can effectively block out office chatter and the roar of plane engines. However, the brand also has earbuds and headphones that are of good quality, too. All models are compatible with Bose Connect (older models). They provide a range of options, including audio settings including battery monitoring, adjustable controls, and listening modes. They're also compatible with all platforms and can be used with Apple, Android and Windows devices.

The QuietComfort45 jbl headphones are Bose’s best-sounding wireless over-ear headphone. The headphones utilize Bluetooth 5.1 for multi-point pairing. They also include a USB-C charging port on the bottom of each cup. The headphones come with a cable with a 3.5mm plug on the other end, which is suitable for wired listening.

They're lightweight headphones that are designed to be worn for long periods of time. They have soft cushions that feel comfortable over ears. Sound is bright and dynamic with an impressive bass response that is well-controlled. The treble might not be as crisp as top-rated rivals like the Sony WH1000XM4 or Jabra Elite85H, however it's sufficient to satisfy the majority of music genres.

The Bose Connect and Bose Music apps also let you adjust the audio settings and alter the EQ. They also have a great microphone that allows hands-free calls as well as a voice assistant which does a good work of getting rid of background noise from your speech when answering questions. The Bose Connect and Bose Music apps allow you to adjust the audio settings and customize the EQ. We've noticed that the Bose voice that informs you of things like battery status and whether you're connected is somewhat robotic, in contrast to the more natural voices of the Sony and Jabra models.

Comfort

Bose headphones are comfortable, whether over-ear or on. The Bose headphones are generally luxuriously padded and don't feel tight on the head, and they come with a an extremely balanced sound profile that makes them suitable for all genres. Many Bose headphones have a companion app that has an equalizer graphic to aid in fine tuning your music.

The Bose QuietComfort 45 wireless over-ear headphones are among the most comfortable headphones we've ever tested, with a comfortable and soft headband as well as comfortable earpads. They are light and sweat-proof, making them comfortable to wear for long periods of time. The earcups can be swiveled around the plastic stems that extend from the headband. This allows you to move them and helps ensure they are secure around your ear.

The Bose Qc45s impressed us by their noise cancellation and audio quality. The sound is clear and headphones Review detailed, with clear mids and clear highs. The headphones also have a very neutral midrange response, which means that voices reproduce well. The only issue is that they don't support the latest Bluetooth codecs, like aptX Adaptive or LDAC, which allow playback without loss.

The Bose Sport Earbuds are smaller and more sleek than the company's flagship QuietComfort Earbuds, making them ideal for running and working out. The earbuds come with a battery life of up to five hours, which is plenty for the majority of exercises. The buds come with an integrated microphone and are waterproof. You can control the buds with the remote included or with the companion app. The app allows you to change settings for ANC and Bose's Aware Mode.

Controls

The 700s don't have physical controls on the ear cups, unlike the majority of Bose's headphones. Instead you'll find a touch panel on the front of the right ear cup that detects swipes and finger taps. Tap twice to play/pause, swipe up or down to change the volume and move forward to skip tracks. One tap answers calls, while the double tap will reject any call that comes in.

The headset lets you switch to the "aware" mode that allows a little bit of a view of your environment. This feature is useful for people who need to be aware of the environment while listening music or making calls.

Another feature on the 700s is a motion sensor that shuts off your headphones after a time of inactivity. It's a welcome addition for those who don't remember to switch off their headphones or get distracted while using headphones. The Bose Connect App lets you change the Auto-Off setting on your Bose headphones.

The app allows you to customize the headphones' features, such as audio settings, noise cancelling levels, and the languages used for voice prompts.

Design

Bose has a reputation for comfortable headphones, and most of their models do a good job at keeping the listener's ears insulated against ambient sound. Their sound is usually well-balanced and able to function across genres without a lot of tweaking. Their headphones are also quite lightweight and durable which makes them a great choice for trips.

One of the main factors that makes Bose headphones so popular is their noise cancellation. The NCH 700s have 10 adjustable levels of noise cancellation and even at its maximum, it's pretty impressive. Six of the eight microphones are put into the headband to help keep voices away from background noise. Two of the microphones serve as noise-rejection sensor to reduce background hiss and echo during voice calls.

In contrast to their rivals, Bose headphones tend to have a minimalist design, with just a few buttons on the headband. The left side of the cup is equipped with an adjustable noise-cancelling switch, and the right cup has switches to power/Bluetooth and launch digital assistants. On the right side of the cup there's a touch-sensitive touchscreen that allows you to play/pause music, change tracks and adjust volume using a few simple gestures.

Bose headphones are ideal for mobile use. Most models that are worn over and on the ear, feature plenty of padding to ensure a comfortable fit. They're also very light and portable making them an excellent option for trips. Bose's wireless headphones can't block out as much sound as some of their competitors. This isn't a problem for most users, especially as Bose also makes dedicated active noise cancelling earbuds for exercise (like the QuietComfort Earbuds II Truly Wireless). This lets you keep track of your surroundings and still enjoy your music.
